We recently had an oil tanker truck turn over and burn next to the San Diego Stadium...it had perhaps 4000 gallons of deisel oil in it and was allowed to burn off, which took perhaps half a day.
What impressed me was the vast amount of thick black smoke that rose a thousand feet up and trailed off as a widening band to the north for miles. Really, it made me think that SH3 doesn't come close to what an oil tanker fire would have produced in terms of lasting smoke.

Any way to make the smoke rise up high?
